This is a bittersweet one folks, but it’s time to shift gears and take ROD to the next level! Although we are excited to announce the soon coming opening of our brick-and-mortar spot right in the heart of North Park, it saddens us to have to announce THE END of our food truck operations.
Now hold on;
It ain’t all doom and gloom. We will still do pop-ups for special events from time to time, but our main focus will be getting our restaurant open. Did we mention the full bar? Ya, that too.
Thank you to everyone who was a part of making food trucking such a memorable experience. We definitely have a new level of respect for the grind. To all our die hard Fried Rice familia, don’t worry we got you, you’ll see.
So wipe yer tears and join us tomorrow, Sunday, at Thr3e Punk Ales for the last hurrah with the Big Yellow Fried Rice Dispensary!
I’m not crying, you’re crying.

What people say
Rice or Death, the popular snack van and food truck in San Diego, has announced some exciting news. They will soon be opening a brick-and-mortar spot in North Park with a full bar! While this means the end of their food truck operations, they will still do pop-ups for special events from time to time. The team at Rice or Death is grateful for everyone who made their food trucking experience memorable and promises to continue serving their die-hard Fried Rice familia.
If you haven't had the chance to try their delicious fried rice yet, don't worry! Rice or Death will be making one last appearance at Thr3e Punk Ales on Sunday, November 6th from 3-9pm. This is your chance to enjoy their Big Yellow Fried Rice Dispensary before they shift gears and focus on their new restaurant.
Rice or Death's fried rice is the perfect complement to any craft beer, as they proved at the SD Beer Guild Fest that kicked off SD Beer Week on Saturday, November 5th. Their loyal fans know that "rice is life," and we can't wait to see what they have in store for us at their upcoming brick-and-mortar location.
